A very funny saying goes like this: Why do people say I slept like a baby when babies wake up every hour during the night.. Aside from the chuckle you may have gotten, what would you say about this quip based on your reading of the textbook?
a. It is inaccurate because babies tend to sleep for four to six hours at a time as early as two months of age.
b. It is inaccurate, since babies tend to sleep for about three hours, wake up for an hour, and then repeat the cycle.
c. It is actually rather accurate, since newborn babies tend to wake up every 30 to 60 minutes for the first month of life.
d. It is impossible to state whether this saying is accurate, since there is no predictable trend of sleep cycles in babies.
